Same for me. Smart audiobook was great on one device, audiobookshelf even better since being into selfhosting.

Plex+Plexamp works great for audiobooks

For some reason the regular Plex player would restart tracks on me after being out of the app for a long time. But Plexamp seems to have that one under control.

Oh, also, while we’re talking audiobooks, check out Graphic Audio versions of your various books. They do a great job

I wish it had a search function, but other than that it’s deffo been my audiobook player of choice for as.long as.i remember

I’ve listened to thousands of hours of audio books and this is my go to player for sure. I tried a couple other ones again recently and ended up coming back to this one. Simple and easy to use. It does have a problem moving books occasionally if they are in the root directory and not a sub folder. I just make sure my books are in sub folders when i get them.

Audiobookbay and smart audiobook player is my setup too. I probably got it from a similar thread. My only annoyance is using audiobookbay’s search can be annoying sometimes, but altogether I love both.

I tried maybe 5 audiobook apps and Smart Audiobook Player was the one I stuck with

This one for sure. Listened to the entirety of The Dark Tower series on this, over the course of months. Literally not a single issue or hiccup the entire time. 127 hours worth.

Can’t recommend this app enough. Pauses when you get map updates, easy to navigate, clean UI.

Big ups to Smart Audiobook Player, definitely worth the $2 to upgrade as well. Not required, and you get a 30 day trial, but well worth it.

Voice is a decent FOSS audiobook player, you can find it in the FOSS repo managers (Droidify, Neo-Store, etc.)

Just my phone, I have an Android
